The 4-Leg bridle sling brings more stability to a load while lifting than the single leg bridle slings. By lifting from 4 anchor points, the lifting slings offer better load stability. By using thimble eyes and oblongs/hooks for hardware, the bridle sling's life is extended. The slings hooks come with safety latches to help keep the connection secure to your anchor point. Make sure to lift with all 4 legs to maintain sling strength. If you lift with one leg, the sling's strength is reduced.
